Family fun for a good cause

There's a unique and fun show coming to Sterling tomorrow that is sure to entertain.

The Sterling Kiwanis Club is bringing the Harlem Ambassadors to the Wally Post Gym for a 6:30 p.m. game against a team of local players, the "Kiwanis All-Stars."

The Harlem-style basketball game is a fundraiser for the Kiwanis Club to assist with its mission of helping children in the community.

The Ambassadors offer a professional basketball game that is a fresh, family-friendly community show. According to the team's website, "The show is designed to be fun for customers of all ages, with youngsters being awed for the first time and older folks enjoying the tried-and-true gags like a rerun of a favorite comedy movie."

The team is also committed to serving as role models for youth, and will be meeting with area school children during their visit to encourage them to stay in school and away from drugs.

Tickets are available in advance for a discount at Jackson Insurance Agency, Equitable Savings & Loan, the Logan County Chamber of Commerce and the Sterling Recreation Center, or you can purchase them at the door.

The Harlem Ambassadors promise theirs is "not your grandfather's basketball show." We encourage you to support the Kiwanis Club, and to come out and enjoy the fun at the game Tuesday night.
